Italy Magazine Blog Awards 2013: Yippee! I won

So Excited about the announcement of the Italy Magazine’s Blog Awards 2013!

If you know me, then you know it is no secret that Italy is an amazing destination that I love to visit! Yes it is true, I absolutely find Italy fascinating and I am happy to announce that one of the most unforgettable experiences that I have had on my travels and wrote about was awarded ‘The Best Single Post about Arts & Culture” by Italy Magazine for their Blog Awards 2013. One of the best things about winning this award is the fact that I knew the minute I arrived at that old violin shoppe, that it was special and that an experience was about to unfold. I could just feel it in my bones. But more than that, I was fascinated by the man behind the music… the man who can hear wood sing.

I am very proud and honored that this particular post won this award, as it is a story that I couldn’t wait to tell. Anyone can tell a story, but when you hear the recounting of a sequence of events that changes the lives of a man and his family forever, you know it is a story that needs to be told.

Thanks Italy Magazine for recognition!
